Tony Blair once met a voter during one of his election campaigns. He started listing the achievements his government had generated for the people. "Aye, we know all that," chipped in the voter, "What are you going to do next?"

That's all from the Scotland Live team for today. We're back tomorrow from 07:00.

18:57:Your evening forecastBBC Scotland WeatherLatest

Wintry showers continuing to end the day and still heavy in places, with some thunder at times and feeling bitterly cold in the wind.

The west to south westerly winds will strengthen further this evening. Expect gale force winds along the west coast, perhaps even severe gale force across the Western Isles, and strengthening through the central belt, reaching gale force for a time here too, perhaps leading to further restrictions on some of the bridges.

During the overnight period, the showers will gradually become confined to western and northern areas, and will be wintry still on the high ground.

Ice will be a risk on any untreated roads and surfaces, with a Met Office yellow 'be aware' weather warning in force for icy stretches away from western coastal areas.

The Board of Rangers notes the Press Release from David King issued today. Proxy voting closes tomorrow morning at 10am, and at the current time a significant number of shares have not yet voted; the outcome cannot therefore be determined with certainty. The position of the proxy voting will not be announced ahead of the meeting for regulatory reasons, and in any event shareholders have the right to revoke their proxy vote by attendance in person at the general meeting.

The Directors believe that they have at all times sought to act in the best interests of Rangers for the benefit of its shareholders as a whole and refute in the strongest possible terms any suggestion that this is not the case and in particular any suggestion that they have given their personal interests priority over those of the Company.

By remaining in post the directors wish to give the Company and possible incoming directors (should the Board change) the best possible chance of complying with the AIM rules and of avoiding the risk highlighted in the circular of 06 February 2015 of the Company's shares being suspended. There can be no guarantee of avoiding suspension.

The Board have reached out to David King in recent days to seek a resolution in the best interests of the Club but regrettably this has not yet proved possible. If control of the board of directors of the Company changes as a result of the general meeting the directors pledge that they will do their utmost to work with the new board in the interests of Rangers Football Club, as they have done and continue to do.

18:10:RANGERS LATEST

The Rangers board has just issued a statement saying the outcome of Friday's extraordinary general meeting isn't a foregone conclusion and that the current directors are remaining in post to avoid the risk of the company's shares being suspended.

This after former director Dave King claimed he had already won a landslide in his bid to oust the current board.

It has also emerged this evening that Rangers have begun the process of drawing down the second chunk of a £10m loan offered by Mike Ashley's Sports Direct company.

But the board is warning Sports Direct could be unwilling to release the funds, which they say are required by the third week of March.

The Newcastle owner, and Rangers shareholder, has also been fined £7,500 for breaching rules on dual ownership.

17:57:Boy in court on stabbing charge

A teenager has appeared in court charged with repeatedly stabbing a schoolboy in the south side of Glasgow.

The 15-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is alleged to have assaulted the boy at Brereton Street, near Holyrood Secondary, on Monday.

He is accused of repeatedly punching him and repeatedly striking him with a knife, to his severe injury.

At Glasgow Sheriff Court, the teenager made no plea or declaration and was released on bail.

There are high wind warnings on the Dornoch and Kessock Bridges and a 40 mph speed-limit on the Forth Road Bridge. The Tay Road Bridge is closed to high-sided vehicles.

In Aberdeen, a broken down lorry on A956 Wellington Road, near the Charlestown Flyover, is blocking one lane, causing southbound queues heading for the A90.

In Kincardine, there is a 10 minute delay on the A876 Kincardine Bridge through the roadworks, westbound between Kincardine and the M876 at the Bowtrees Roundabout.

In Glasgow, at the Clyde Tunnel, an earlier broken down bus on the southbound carriageway has been cleared but there are still long delays. Traffic is queuing back to Anniesland Cross at Great Western Road. On the Clydeside Expressway, traffic is queuing from Finnieston to the Clyde Tunnel. There are also queues on the onramps at Broomhill and Partick.

In Johnstone, on the A737, a broken down car is blocking one lane northbound. This is affecting traffic heading for Linwood and the M8.

Barrhead Road is partially blocked westbound by an accident between Peat Road and Crookston Road. This is causing delays toward the Hurlet, with further delays approaching Peat Road roundabout.

On the M8 in West Lothian, traffic is tailing back, through the roadworks at J4, to J3a Bathgate.

There are cancellations and disruption on trains between Troon and Kilmarnock because of a broken down train.

There are cancellations too between Glengarnock and Lochwinnoch because of a signalling problem.

The 18:15 Mallaig to Fort William train is also cancelled

The weather is also causing disruption to many ferry services. Calmac's sailings between Oban and Lismore are cancelled. Many others are on amber alert, so, check before heading out.

17:07:'Knuckleduster' man held at airport

A man has been arrested after trying to board a plane while in possession of a weapon, believed to be a knuckleduster.

Police said officers were called to Sumburgh Airport, in Shetland, by security staff at about 11:28.

They arrested a 29 year old man who had been attempting to board a Glasgow-bound flight "whilst in possession of an offensive weapon".

The man, who is in police custody, will be the subject of a report to the procurator fiscal.

The system used to determine when it should be shut during high winds has been under review since December.

Between September and January the bridge was shut to lorries almost 100 times and all traffic on 14 occasions.

Councillor Drew Millar said warnings on electronic signs maybe remaining in place longer than necessary.

14:12:Puppy love

Two power engineers who saved a litter of new-born puppies have had two of the dogs named after them as a thank you.

The day-old German Shepherd pups were at risk of freezing to death when the power supply to their farmhouse in Moray went off during stormy weather in January.

But Scottish and Southern Energy Power Distribution engineers Keith Hay and Bill Collie came to the rescue with a mobile electricity generator to keep them warm.

Now their owners, Geoff and Sharon Hutley, from Mulben, have officially registered two of the pups with the Kennel Club as "Keith Hay" and "Bill Collie" as a tribute to the engineers' life-saving actions.

He won 10 major honours as a player in British and European football including a league and FA Cup double with Tottenham in 1961.

The Edinburgh-born player also won 22 caps for his country and was named 'Footballer of the Year' in both Scotland and England.

13:55:Dave King - Statement in full

In his statement, Dave King said: "All of the Rangers directors that are subject to my requisition have now accepted that my resolutions have been successful and there is now no need for the general meeting to proceed.

"Mr Llambias put it best by advising me that I had achieved a 'landslide' victory. I wish to thank all shareholders, and particularly the fans, for this resounding success. The future now looks more recognisable for all Rangers stakeholders.

"James Easdale and David Somers did the right thing by resigning however the two appointees of Mr Ashley have stubbornly refused to resign and are using their current position (as remaining directors) to withhold implementation of the resolutions for personal gain. I attach a copy of my email to them in this regard.

"Now that the incoming board and I can focus on the future I will issue a further press statement outlining the immediate and intermediate steps that we have to take as we commence the road to re-establishing Rangers to the institution that its legacy demands."

13:52:King calls on Llambias and Leach to go

Dave King has publicly called for Rangers' two remaining board members to resign, claiming they are clinging on to their positions for personal gain.

King, who called for a general meeting to replace the current board with him and two associates, also says Derek Llambias and Barry Leach have acknowledged that his resolutions have already been successful.

But so far they have not followed the lead of James Easdale and David Somers by resigning from their positions.

Torquil Johnson-Ferguson, 65, of Canonbie in Dumfries and Galloway, attacked three boys aged 13 or under at the Rua Fiola centre.

He was convicted of three charges of lewd, indecent and libidinous practices and behaviour.

He was jailed for 18 months at Oban Sheriff Court.

Cardenden Primary is also closed due to problems with their heating system.

09:58:Island subsea water leak isolated

Divers have isolated a leak in a subsea water pipe which has been left people in the Orkney island of Graemsay without supplies in recent days.

Repair work is under way and Scottish Water said that additional work to ensure that the pipe network was clean, and water standard maintained, meant it could be about a week until supplies returned to normal.

The Little Sisters of the Poor announced last year that they were unable continue their mission at the Wellburn Care Home after 152 years.

However, the Little Sisters have verbally accepted an offer from the Diocese of Dunkeld to take over the home, ensuring it stays open.

The practical side of the transfer will be worked out in the coming months.

09:46:Read all about it...Douglas FraserBusiness and economy editor, Scotland

Newspapers have been notoriously poor at adapting to a hugely disrupted market.

They can handle competitors. They've adjusted to radio and TV. But few saw what the internet would do to them.

Having worked in newspapers for nearly 20 years, my take on it is that they were too often run by people whose main qualification was the ability to hit an advertising target, without the imagination to foresee and adapt to technological change.

Cannich Bridge, St Clement's, Stratherrick and Drummond schools have been shut because of the weather.

The Met Office has a yellow "be aware" warning in place for large parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales.

It warns of wintry showers and ice.

Anon: I have used cannabis from the age of 15 and am now in my 50s. I have always worked and have had two very successful careers in very different fields. I also have two prolapsed discs in my neck and cannabis is the only thing that eases the pain. I have visited Holland on many occasions to visit their coffee shops and a very pleasurable experience was had but a lot of the grass now available should be treated and used carefully; it can cause some people very serious psychological problems if abused.

Steve fae Dunoon: I have smoked cannabis daily for 45 years and worked throughout raising three kids to degree level. Skunk is no more harmful. I just use less as drinkers do with whisky. Legalise now.

The Edinburgh-born midfielder won 10 major honours as a player in British and European football, starring for Hearts, Tottenham and Derby County.

He also won 22 caps for his country and was named 'Footballer of the Year' in both Scotland and England.

Hearts described Mackay as "a fearless defender regarded as the club's greatest-ever player, Dave won the league title, Scottish Cup and Scottish League Cup (twice) with Hearts before going on to star for Tottenham Hotspur and Derby County".

The Edinburgh club also quoted the late midfielder as saying: "For as long as I can remember, all I wanted in my life, nothing else, was to play for Hearts, which is my dream team. And to play for Scotland - I had no ambition for anything else. Always Hearts."
